Action/Process Run History
There currently isn’t a way to find out when an action or a process was last run. There is also not a way to see when the last time that a file was uploaded. We would like to Anaplan to capture the last time each one of these actions, processes, or data uploads occurred.

Add Ability to "Push" data to another model as opposed to always "Pulling" data into a model
With a data hub model in place, it would be beneficial to run a series of actions or processes, on-demand or via Anaplan Connect, that would take data and lists from the data hub and "push" from the data hub to the downstream models. As Anaplan is architeched and working now, you would need to go to downstream models,…

Recognise zeroes and blanks as different data inputs when using number formatting
Can we add a number formatting option (text fomatting causes issues for our users) with a default for the cell of blank (if blank then the cell is ignored) and then if a zero is input it is treated as a number. For example - the default calculation for sales volume generates 50 for January 2018, there is an "override" line…

Able to use the row id number as unique identifier when import a file
It would be really useful if the row id number ("Line #") would be available as additional column when import a csv file or from any other external source. When import files in Anaplan, usually the first step is to import the file into a numbered list where the file columns are transformed in numbered list properties. To…

Access to source views on saved exports
When an export is created and saved, from a saved view, it does not indicate the source of that export (only the source module). It will be very useful, when an export is created from a saved view, to have it recorded in Anaplan, in the same way as the Imports are recorded their source view.

Remove 10 million item limit from the ISFIRSTOCCURRENCE function
Brief description of the idea Remove 10 million item limit from the ISFIRSTOCCURRENCE function Expected benefit/impact Removing this limit would allow imports to be ran into large hierarchies that are referenced in ISFIRSTOCCURRENCE formula. Currently they fail with an error message.

Import: add "Ignore All Unmapped" option with manual mapping
currently w/ manual importing Match or Ignore are the only options for assign/ignore an item. It would be huge time-saving for Admins to add "ignore all" option so all unmapped can just be skipped. IRL example, source have 400 accounts and target only need use 20 of them. it's very time consuming to click "ignore" for the…

Make Bulk Copy between Versions an Action
Currently our team EVERY WEEK, has to bulk copy the current version to the previous version because there is no way to automate this. That is 52 manual interventions every year. If you could create an ACTION that would allow you to bulk copy and have user select source version to target version, than we can schedule an…

As Model Builder/ Data Integration specialist I would like to be allowed to create a Process in CloudWorks even it is not chosen a Datasource or Target.

Google Sheets Add-on: remove connection owner limitation
Currently only the one person who sets up the google sheet connection to Anaplan can refresh the sheets. It will be much better since we are a team and sometimes don't want to just rely on one person to refresh the connection. Or if the person needs to take vacation, then no one can refresh the connection other than to…

the functionality of supporting multiple connections in one Excel sheet
currently the functionality of supporting multiple connections in one Excel sheet is not available yet in Excel Addin 3.4, i would suggest adding this functionality to retrieve/combine/show different reports/views in one excel tab.

Default Import Setting
It would be great if the 'Default File' setting when you import a csv into a module could be automatically set to 'Admins Only' or 'Everyone' instead of 'No (keep private)'. Our company uses an ETL tool to load data into models and if that setting is not changed then it causes errors and we end up with data that is not…

On an import have the ability to Ignore All
Currently when manually mapping fields in an import there is the option to Match, Ignore and Clear All. It is often the case that it would be easier to set the import to Ignore All and then to match only specific fields on an exception basis. The current requirement of clicking each field in the import you wish to Ignore…

Provide detailed log on cloudworks
As an integration admin, it woulf be very useful to be able to get (through api or the ui) a log detail of the last cloufworks run for a given integration. This is necessary as the current error messages are a bit cryptic to understand like "process failed"

Creating Imports: Search for Saved View, Module, or List
When creating import actions that connect to lists, modules, or saved views within Anaplan models, it would be useful to have a “Search” button to assist in locating the list/module/saved view the model builder needs to select. This search feature is incorporated into other parts of Anaplan and, should it be added to the…

Ability to export values as formatted for .CSV
As a user, I need to be able to export data in the format I have set instead of a standardised format when exporting as .CSV. For example, I want to be able to export * Large numbers - The option to export "1,000,000,000,000" rather than "1.0E12" * Small numbers - The option to export "0.00001" rather than "1.0E-5" My data…

Condition-Based Trigger for Email Reporting
The current MAILTO function requires clicking the cell in order for an email to be generated. It would be very helpful if this click action occurs automatically only if a certain logical condition is met. For example, if the sum of all sales from last week reaches a certain threshold or is below a certain threshold, the…

Excel Add-in 3.2: increase cell extract count
In the current version of the Excel Add-in, it is not possible to create a connection to a saved view or module with a total cell count of the dimensions (rows x columns) greater than 1 million. Any saved views with hidden line items or filters applied will not have an effect on the view size and will therefore not…

Have a timestamp on when an action or process was last ran

New Filter Option: "Absolute Value" and "In Between" Filter
It would be very helpful to have a filter option added that allows a user to filter on absolute value as well as to filter by defining a top and bottom range that returns amounts in between the range. Currently, we have built line items as a work around, but these tend to take a lot of space. This functionality should be…
